The Pentium Era - South to North

They arrived at the West Lake and stopped at the entrance of Liu Park Sanlian Bookstore. They changed people to sit in the passenger seat of the Aston Martin and drove around the West Lake. At this time, there were almost no people in the West Lake. Occasionally, people could come from Baidi. Over there, there were one or two heart-piercing screams, coming from a few people who were just like them, determined to penetrate the night.

These two shouts soon sank into the dark West Lake. Even the night birds on the nearby lone mountain were paralyzed by firecrackers and fireworks all night long, and they didn't even bother to wake up.

The city, which had been noisy all night, seemed tired now and fell silent.

The roar of the Aston Martin is low and surging, always trying to break away from the tangle and rush forward, confronting the silence around it.

Liu Ligan drove his car along Huancheng West Road and turned left onto Beishan Street. When he arrived at the Shihan intersection, he did not continue walking along Beishan Street. Instead, he turned left onto Baidi and crossed Broken Bridge and Jindai Bridge. , arrived at Gushan, continued forward, passed the Zhejiang Provincial Museum and Louwailou, passed Su Xiaoxiao's tomb, and turned left on Beishan Street again.

After passing the gate of Shangri-La, go to the three-way intersection and turn left, go up Su Causeway, turn up Su Causeway, and cross Hongqiao not far ahead. Liu Ligang accelerated. The up and down slope across Hongqiao was very steep. He accelerated to On the top of the bridge, the entire car flew off the ground, and then fell down with a bang. Ma Li, who was the first to sit in the passenger seat, screamed, and Liu Ligan laughed.

There are six bridges on Su Causeway, collectively known as the "Six Suspension Bridges", "Six Suspension Bridges with a View of the West Lake, One Willow and One Peach". From this direction, they cross the Hong Bridge, Dongpu Bridge, Yadi Bridge and Wangshan Bridge in order. , Suolan Bridge, and Yingbo Bridge. After passing Yingbo Bridge, the entire Su Causeway ends, and you turn left to Nanshan Road.

Follow Nanshan Road past Leifeng Pagoda and Jingsi Temple, turn left at the intersection of Yuhuang Mountain, and continue on Nanshan Road, pass Singing Orioles in the Willows and Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts, arrive at the First Park at the end of Jiefang Road, turn onto Hubin Road, Second Park, and Fourth Park , Fifth Park, a circle around the West Lake ends, you can see Meng Ping's car parked on the roadside of Sixth Park in front.

The other people were sitting in Meng Ping's car, waiting for Liu Ligan to come back. Then someone got out and ran to the Aston Martin. The man in the car ran back here.

Ren Rongrong couldn't wait. Every time he wanted to get out of the car, he was pulled back by Chen Yaqin. Chen Yaqin scolded: "Why are you joining in the fun? Mr. Liu will take you back later. You drove all the way home, what are you grabbing now?"

Ren Rongrong had no choice but to continue sitting there.

They walked around the West Lake for more than an hour, looking at the horizon, but there was no sign of light. Chen Yaqin asked Meng Ping, do you need to sleep for a while?

Meng Ping said no.

"Then let's go now." Chen Yaqin said, and Meng Ping said yes.

Chen Yaqin's home is close to Hangzhou, and she has to go back. Ren Rongrong has a long way to go, and it takes three hours to drive. Liu Ligan and Ren Rongrong said, let's go, too. At worst, we can rest for a while on the way, and Ren Rongrong agreed.

Ren Rongrong finally got on the Aston Martin. He raised his right hand and waved excitedly. The motor roared and they went directly back to Ren Rongrong's home from the West Lake.

Meng Ping and Chen Yaqin sent Baozhen, Ma Li and the three girls to the dormitory first, and then started on the road to Keqiao.

There are few cars in the evening. Chen Yaqin's family lives in Keqiao near Yangxun Bridge. It is less than 40 kilometers from Hangzhou. Meng Ping drove there in more than half an hour.

Chen Yaqin's home is a three-story building with a courtyard in front of the door. In front of the courtyard is a sun drying field. Meng Ping drove his car to the sun drying field in front of Chen Yaqin's house. It was still dark at this time. , it is definitely not good to bring a man home. You have to stay in a hotel, and recently you have to go to the Textile City. I don’t know if the door will be opened, and Meng Ping doesn’t know how to get there.

Meng Ping said it's okay, you can go back. I'll stop here and sleep in the car for a while. When it gets dark, I'll go directly to Shaoxing city to have a look.

"Have you been to Shaoxing?" Chen Yaqin asked.

Meng Ping said no.

"Then do you want me to accompany you? On a day like this, you are an outsider. Let alone a hotel, I'm afraid you won't even be able to find a place to eat." Chen Yaqin said.

"Is everything okay at home?" Meng Ping asked.

"If there is something going on at home, if people see it and know that we are back for the New Year, it will be fine. At the worst, we can have a reunion dinner together in the evening."

"That's great." Meng Ping smiled, "Let's go together."

Chen Yaqin said "Yeah" and nodded. Then you can talk about it after you wake up in the car.

Meng Ping said yes.

Chen Yaqin got out of the car and walked to the door of her house. Her family knew that she was coming back. The courtyard door was ajar. Chen Yaqin walked in. The door of the house was closed but not bolted. Instead, a stool top was placed inside. As soon as Chen Yaqin pushed the door open, the stool made a sound as it rubbed against the ground. Her mother's voice sounded from a door on her left:

"Which one?"

Chen Yaqin responded: "Me."

"Yaqin is back?"

Chen Yaqin said "Yeah", and then there was no movement inside the door.

Chen Yaqin's room was on the second floor. She went upstairs and opened the door. She walked to the window and looked down. She saw that Meng Ping had turned off the car lights, and the car was lying on the sunbath in darkness.

In the early morning of February in Jiangnan, the coldness penetrated her bones. Chen Yaqin thought for a moment, walked to the cabinet, opened the door, hugged a quilt and went downstairs.

…

It was already past ten o'clock in the morning when Meng Ping woke up. When he opened his eyes, he was startled. He saw four or five old people looking at him outside the car. When Meng Ping opened his eyes, the people outside were The person was also startled, and subconsciously stepped back.

These elderly people are all Chen Yaqin's family, including her grandparents, aunt, and her parents. Chen Yaqin's grandma was the first to get up. When she opened the courtyard door, she saw a car parked in front of her house. She didn't take it too seriously. Guests from neighbors often drove up to the village and parked their cars here because there was no place to park.

Chen Yaqin's grandma thought it would still be the case this time.

The night before, we stayed up late and watched the Spring Festival Gala. On the first day of the new year, everyone got up late. It was around nine o'clock when Chen Yaqin's aunt got up. She walked to the door and saw the car. She was curious, so she walked over to take a look and saw the car in the car. There was still a person sleeping, so I walked back to talk to my mother. The mother and daughter came over to have a look, and then walked back.

Neither of them knew whose guest this was, or why he was sleeping in the car. It was such a cold day, and it was the first day of the Lunar New Year. It was really pitiful.

When Chen Yaqin's mother got up, the two people quickly told Chen Yaqin's mother about this strange thing. Her mother came to take a look and made a new discovery. She told them that the quilt covering this person seemed to be from our home. Yes, it's from Yaqin's room.

Hearing what Chen Yaqin's mother said, not only her grandmother and aunt were excited, but her father and grandfather were also surprised when they heard it. Chen Yaqin has never brought any man back home. At such an old age, the family is almost dying of panic. When I heard that a man was coming and sleeping outside in the car, everyone went over to take a look.

Outside the car, even Chen Yaqin's aunt confirmed that yes, this quilt was from Yaqin's room.

"You look pretty good, like a serious person." Chen Yaqin's grandma suddenly said something, and everyone else laughed.

Chen Yaqin's father looked at the license plate and told them that he seemed to be from Jiangsu.

A few people were muttering when Meng Ping suddenly opened his eyes, startling them. Chen Yaqin's father took a step back. When he was about to take another step forward and wanted to ask who he was, Chen Yaqin ran out of the yard. .

Chen Yaqin shouted: "He is my boss, he is the one who sent me home."

At this time, Meng Ping also got out of the car. Chen Yaqin quickly introduced them to them. Meng Ping called uncle, aunt, grandpa and grandma. Chen Yaqin's family members responded one by one, while looking at Chen Yaqin with eager eyes. Chen Yaqin knew that they were What do you mean, it must be a misunderstanding, I couldn't help but blush.

She quickly told them to go back, we were leaving too.

Chen Yaqin's mother was startled and asked quickly: "Where are you going?"

"Oh, I have something to do in Shaoxing city." Chen Yaqin became a little anxious when she saw that they had no intention of going back at all.

It turned out that she was not going back to Hangzhou. Chen Yaqin's mother breathed a sigh of relief. She said, "The boss will definitely come for dinner when I come back that night."

Before Chen Yaqin spoke, Meng Ping had already agreed. Chen Yaqin looked at him helplessly, thinking that if he didn't come to eat, he wouldn't have anywhere to eat on the first day of the first lunar month.

After finalizing the matter, Chen Yaqin's parents walked home. Chen Yaqin said let's go, so we did too, and got into the car.

Meng Ping got in the car and saw Chen Yaqin's blushing face and pouting. Meng Ping laughed and said, "Chen Yaqin, you are so stingy."

Chen Yaqin was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"When I arrived at your door, you didn't even invite me to breakfast." Meng Ping said.

Chen Yaqin laughed: "Okay, when we get to Shaoxing, I'll treat you to breakfast and I'll eat you up, okay?"

Meng Ping said yes and started the car.

After driving for twenty minutes, they arrived in downtown Shaoxing. On New Year's Day, the entire city was deserted. All the shops on the roadside were closed. Where could there be food? Meng Ping asked Chen Yaqin:

"Chen Yaqin, are you taking me to eat the northwest wind?"

Chen Yaqin smiled and said: "There is no northwest wind, but there is food at the Lu Xun Memorial Hall. It is open 365 days a year."

Meng Ping said excitedly: "Are the Baicao Garden and Sanwei Bookstore also there?"

"Yes, there are also Lu Xun's former residence and Xianheng Hotel. Can I invite you to have lunch at Xianheng Hotel?"

"Haha, there is also the Xianheng Hotel. Where Kong Yiji went, there are fennel beans and stinky tofu, right?" Meng Ping laughed and said, "This trip is worth it. I invite you to lead the way."

Chen Yaqin asked curiously: "Why are you so excited?"

"Of course I'm excited. When we were studying, half of the Chinese books were written by Lu Xun, such as Baicao Garden, Sanwei Bookstore and Xianheng Hotel. I haven't been yearning for those since I was a child."

Meng Ping shouted, and Chen Yaqin also laughed, finally understanding that when she was studying, her Chinese language book was also half a copy of Lu Xun. As a Shaoxing native, of course she was only proud.
